The Deputy Minister for Finance, Hon. Thomas Nyarko-Ampem, has inaugurated the Governing Board of the National Homeownership Fund Ltd. (NHF), urging members to ensure that affordable housing becomes truly accessible to the ordinary Ghanaian.
He observed that access to affordable housing remains a major challenge for the population, and called on the board to design strategies that address the housing needs of low- and middle-income earners.
Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Prosper Hoetu, highlighted the urgency of the task, noting that only 5% of Ghanaians can afford to buy their own homes, while about 60% require some form of support to secure decent shelter. He pledged that the Fund will work to improve the situation and expand housing access.
